President's Management Agenda
According to the President's Management Agenda, published by George W. Bush in 2002, "Government likes to begin things - to declare grand new programs and causes. But good beginnings are not the measure of success. What matters in the end is completion. Performance. Results. Not just making promises, but making good on promises. In my Administration, that will be the standard from the farthest regional office of government to the highest office in the land." President Bush's Management Agenda goes on to argue that "Government should be results-oriented - guided not by process but guided by performance. There comes a time when every program must be judged either a success or a failure. Where we find success, we should repeat it, share it, and make it the standard. And where we find failure, we must call it by its name. Government action that fails in its purpose must be reformed or ended."
Based on these statements, all of which are direct quotes from Bush, isn't it high time the United States develops a "coherent and coordinated plan"?
